Aloha Sis & Fav Brother,

Just a quickie (clean up yer brain, brother!!!) 'HELLO' from us to you! Dorian Jane and I are holding down the fort while the Gram & Ray are on their long-awaited trip to Japan! I just received a short e-mail from them and they said they had a 'slight tremor' of an earthquake. Whooeee, quite a sensation from the 36th floor of the hotel!

We are cat-sitting for their little tribe of kitty loves and handling the business affairs as well as planning lots of fun house parties while they are gone. Whoops, skip that party part! We are so NOT having any parties! We are being very responsible! Sushi for lunch and popcorn for dinner! (one of the best perks of 'cooking for two'!!!)

I have been busy with the vacation rentals and Dorian has been busy still trying to catch up on her third quarter studies, stay on track with fourth quarter and study for SATS which will be the day after school is out! By the way...remember the whale watching trip thru school? I promised I'd post pics if they spotted any? I guess they were closing in on the tail-end of whale season so they did not see any, only turtles and a couple of dolphins. Still, very cool, as the Napali coast is a sight in itself.

Wishing we could box up some of this beautiful place, along with it's amazing spirit and send it to you. We are sending you all our love, kisses, hugs and prayers. Know that you are always in our thoughts and how very much we love you both!!!

Aloha Nui Loa

Sheri
